Contact seller4-star sellerhardcover. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. Norman. 1943. University of Oklahoma Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. Illustrated by Edith Mahier. 190 pages. hardcover. Signed by Both Pipes & Mahier. keywords: African American America History. DESCRIPTION - Ten years ago a young man, nat…ive of old Natchez with a highly sensitive ear and a gift for poetic expression rook a job as clerk at Forty-Acre Store in the swamplands of Louisiana. His customers were mainly Negroes from the neighboring cotton plantations, sawmills, and cane farms, and migrant hands from the levee camps on the Mississippi five miles away. Their language and their folk tales impressed him, and soon he began to take them down on scraps of paper, sometimes in a kind of shorthand of his own devising. For ten years the collection grew, until now it emerges as Ziba. James Pipes has made of his materials something altogether rare in the white man's writings about the American Negro. His writing contains a wealth of folklore and a richness of poetic expression that may establish him as one of the few great observers of the Negro in our generation. In the voices of these Negroes there is no malice, yet in them may be detected subtle overtones, patient but profound, which get at human truths far more effectively than the dissections of social philosophers. And there is a kind of gladness, too, that has all but defied the analysis of those who know, but have not always expressed, the great contribution of the Negro to American life. The book has an organic unity - it moves from the allegory of the Negro's bondage, to his life in a strange land, the occupations of the field and mill which have absorbed his energies and stimulated his song, his conception of the hereafter - the long voyage home - and finally his simple yet powerful expressions on freedom. His rich endowments in the figurative and the musical have never attained greater stature than in these lines, nor has his wisdom appeared more unmistakable. The drawings for ZIBA are as authentic as the characters depicted in another medium by Mr. Pipes. They were done in the neighborhood of Forty-Acre Store by Edith Mahier, herself a native of Louisiana. inventory #24005 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. Signed by Both Pipes & Mahier.
